I just stumbled upon this new item, a skid plate for the rear differential.

It looks like it would do the job, but being that is a Boulder accessory I am sure it is way over priced and hard to find through the dealer. :raar:

that looks beefy as hell, but wouldn't be a mud magnet and end up over heating your rear diff? Any thoughts?

I guess it would depend on what the front of it looked like. It could possibly scoop up the mud or slide over the top.

We need more pics of this plate.

This one is ventilated but you still need to wash sometimes, just a little.

Nothing on the front. Just bolts over the back end. It is made real nice and strong. Good craftsmanship. Has not chipped or peeled.

I saw the boulder accessory one in person this summer. I talked to the rep who has tested it quite well. It's built very good and it keeps the rear diff from getting caught up on trees, etc. you can order it through your dealer and I think it's only something like $125. It's full protection for the rear diff. whereas the spider one only covers the rear.

Wow! That is some great info. Thank you.
Did you happen to get a look at the front of it and if it would scoop up mud or not?

It doesn't scoop up mud like you would think. But like and cover under the vehicle, some dirt collection is possible nothing you couldn't spray out with the garden hose.
